2012 NFL Discussion Thread V. SUPHARBAUGHL

I was talking about football with my new boss today. Everything was going alright until he proclaimed Julio Jones as the best receiver in the NFL.

Ridiculous. We all know it's Wes Welker.

Maybe not, but he did admit to at least one bad call.

With the Broncos up 35-28 after stopping the Ravens on fourth down, most thought Manning could run out the final 3:12. Denver ran rookie Ronnie Hillman on the first two plays, getting a first down. Two more Hillman runs made it third and 7 from the Denver 47 with 2:00 left and the Ravens out of timeouts. A first down wins it. But rather than Manning throwing on third down, Hillman ran once more, this time for no gain, and the Broncos punted with 1:15 left. "That was an audible," Manning said. "Actually, I called that play, so don't put that on (offensive coordinator) Mike (McCoy). We just didn't do much with it."

Looks to me like ATL is for real. Only lost by 4 points to the best def in the league, after beating one of the top 3 def the week before.
Guess I'm a complete idiot for saying that they were offensive juggernauts almost 4 months ago. Also looks like Julio Jones is indeed the x factor this year... like i said almost 4 months ago
I'll take my E-cookie now.

They just need to sign/draft some marquee players on D.

Speaking of which, I found it amusing when people blamed John Fox for the questionable play-calling against Baltimore. Peyton had just as much to do with those calls as Fox. You can't give Peyton credit when things go well and then look for someone else to blame when they go bad.

i don't know, word on the street is mccoy constantly pumped the brakes on the offense. there were also a ton of dropped passes by both teams, not all of them were easy catches but nobody stepped up for denver and made a play. decker had a pretty rough game and dt was a relative non-factor.

Yea, I'm sure he did. He played the percentages. As he always does. You cant go throwing haymakers because you just got popped. They played it smart, unfortunately, things didnt work out. If the Broncos score 35, they should win. Period. The offense gets 1% of the blame in this case.

Yeap. Although he didnt really earn it. Cromartie bailed him out in Indy that year with that absolutely ridiculous kick return with less then a minute left that set him up with the most retarded bull**** I've ever seen.
